Brought to you by The River Lee. 

If your Easter plans usually involve chocolate eggs on the sofa, it’s time to elevate the affair.

This year, Cork’s most stylish diners are being invited to indulge in some riverside glamour as The River Lee unveils its exclusive Easter Sunday lunch in the chic surrounds of The Mirror Room.

Set on a picturesque bend in the river and just a short stroll from the heart of Cork, The River Lee has long been a favourite for those who like their dining experiences served with a side of polish. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood The Mirror Room with natural light, bouncing off its elegant interiors.

Easter Sunday here isn’t just lunch. It’s an occasion.

Think beautifully presented plates, carefully curated seasonal flavours and the gentle hum of conversation in a room that manages to feel both buzzy and intimate. It’s the sort of place where three generations can gather around the table and everyone feels catered for.

For families looking to mark the day in style, it’s a chance to create new traditions — without anyone having to face a sink full of roasting trays afterwards. For couples and friends, it’s the perfect excuse to dress up, toast the long weekend and indulge in an afternoon that feels a little bit decadent.

All you need to do is arrive, relax and let the team take care of the rest.

What’s on the menu?

This sumptuous three-course lunch welcomes a symphony of local flavours and fresh ingredients. Guests will begin with a choice of starters such as a Ardsallagh goats cheese tart or Skeaghanore duck terrine.

Choose from favourites like Robata-Grilled Michael Twomey’s Spring Lamb, Roast Supreme of West Cork Chicken, Pan-Fried Atlantic Salmon and many more delicious dishes for your main.

Conclude a gorgeous afternoon of indulgence with a choice of tea or coffee and a decadent dessert such as a Warm Chocolate Fondant or Vanilla & Rhubarb Crème Brûlée.

Of course, you needn’t end the day there – we never skip an opportunity to linger over a cocktail or two and celebrate the ‘grand stretch’ in style.

The Mirror Room’s Easter Sunday Lunch is priced at three-course €60 per person / two-course €50 per person including tea or coffee and the promises an afternoon of elegance, warmth and indulgence.
